Meet the Team
A small Montreal team bringing personality science to everyday hiring.
Willis Klein
Chief Executive Officer
Willis researches personality and social behaviour as a PhD candidate in psychology at McGill University, with funding from the FRQSC. He started Pythia to bring the best of personality science out of the lab and into everyday hiring decisions.
He holds a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and Cognitive Science from the University of Toronto, and works at McGill under the supervision of Dr. Jennifer Bartz. His research on gaslighting in close relationships and the workplace, conducted with Dr. Suzanne Wood, Dr. Jennifer Bartz and Sherry Li, has drawn national and international media attention.
Louis-Philippe Robichaud
Chief Technology Officer
LP builds Pythia's platform and the security that protects your data. He studied mathematics and computer science at McGill and is completing a master's in cryptography at ÉTS, where his research is funded by NSERC.
Before Pythia, he spent several years building software as an independent consultant. He cares about building resilient, compliant systems that hold up in the long run. Outside work, he enjoys running, the gym, and a cold brew in the sun.
